[What Do You Do If the Parachute Doesn't Open? By Albert T. Reid | BISHOP i\ Mock, pastor of the [ethoJist church, and well mghout this section of North l^rolina, created no little sensatiottlast Sunday morning among me^bejtf of his flock when he scath ingly denounced. Bishop James Can non, Jr.4j for meddling in politics and for gambling in Wall street. The pastor claimed/ that the bishop by so doing has broken his ministerial Vows and that, conseueguently; he is no'' longer fit to be a minister of the Methodist church. The vows each Methodist n:inister is- required to subscribe to are taken before a bishop and read as follows: The bishop, Will you deny all un godliness and worldly lusts, and live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present world, that you may show yourself in all things an example of good work to others, that the adver sary may be ashamed, having nothing to say against you? The answer is: I will do so, the Lord being my helper This 'Vow, said the local pastor, was taken by Bishop Cannon when he became a minister of the Methodist church and this vow has been broken by his nefarious activities in Wall street and in politics. "Any minister who will gamble in Wall street has no interest in the church nor in the Kingdom of God' and is merely using the cloak of the church as a smoke screen and is bringing shame and dishonor upon the church, V said) Mr. Mock. The pastor tool: as his subject, ' 1 The Relations of the Church to Man and God." His discourse was based upon the story of the Good Samari tan. He stressed the fact that the thieves were determined^ to have the I>ossessHjb8 of the wayfarer regard less of #he methods used| to attain their vW! t of a (ietermination on the part of the bishop to attain worldly riches regardless of right or wfong. The congregation Sunday morning was small, but those present heard one of the most powerful sermons ever delivered in a local church. It was evident to the audience that the pastor is deeply concerned about the church of tw^ay and about its fu ture. He stated that the church is losing its influence and referred to the actions of Bishop Cannon as a contributing cause. His earnest plea that the church follow the basic prin ciples laid down by the Savior made a deep impression on his hearers. Not only is it important that the laymen bear this in mind, but the ministers in particular should be es pecially careful to hew to the line and to bring no disgrace Upon th# church. Calling upon ' Bishop Cannon "to get out," Mr. Mock ma^e the follow ing statement: "Any minister of the church, be he bishop or whatnot, who so far forgets his relations to the church and to God as to go off after falscj gods, who breaks hi$ minister ial vows by mixing in politics and by using the money given him by Methodists to gamble in Wall Street, i is totally unfit to be a minister of the Methodist church and should get out* voluntarily." The sole business of the church is saving souls, said the minister. "It rightly has no place in politics," said the pastor, who then went oh to state that "the Bap tist church had its Carnes, and now the Methodist church is burdened with its Cannon." During the course of his sermon* . Mr. Mock stated that he had no ob jections to a minister's association with gamblers, thieves and drunkard^ , provided such association was for the purpose of lifting up fallen humanity. "But when a minister of the gospel walks into a gambling den and throws his cards on the table with gamblers, such minister should im mediately quit the ministry." The local pastor intimated that he might be disciplined for his utter ances concerning Bishop Cannon. '^1 was called to the ministry of Jesus Christ and not to the ministry ot any particular church,'.' said be. The Rev. Mr. Mock stated his readiness to leave the ministry of the Metho dist ciurch and to take up similar work in other fields before he would - sacrifice his convictions of right and wrong.
